Hello,

Swapping out the 2.0 l engine in my 1971 for another 2.0 l ...Has lower miles (35k) and documented build.

Both engines carbed

I see the engine harness in a bit different at the end that connects to fan blower.

Pic 1 is the from the existing engine that had the fan blower mounted. Has the two wire connector to plug into the fan plug...

Pic 2 is from the replacement engine. I only see a white wire that is spare. Could this be the fan power and then I use a common ground? In understand what the other wires in the pic connect to.


Thanks the help going forward

@JeffBowlsby

I knew you would know and was hoping you weren't on vacation!!!

Thanks Jeff

Assume all I have to do is disconnect both from the alternators?
